Logo: 2026 EJH Summit

Postponed due to inclement weather.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

Due to forecasted winter weather and potential impacts on travel and safety across North Carolina, the North Carolina Black Alliance has made the difficult decision to postpone the EJH Summit. This was not an easy call, but the safety of our attendees, speakers, partners and staff must come first.

We regret the inconvenience this change may cause and appreciate your understanding. Please know we are actively working to secure a new date and will share updated details as soon as they are confirmed.

All registrations will automatically transfer to the rescheduled summit — no additional action is needed on your part at this time.

Thank you for your patience, grace and continued commitment to this important work.

EJH Lightning Talks

Lightning Talks are short presentations that focus on key points related to a subject matter. Done well, they are a great way to get your point across in a short amount of time. These talks will highlight community-driven solutions addressing environmental injustice and healthcare disparities, showcasing initiatives in research, programming, and policy. Participants will have opportunities for education and open discussions on recent findings in environmental health, healthcare equity, climate, and energy use. We especially invite early career professionals and students to submit posters for Lightning Talks.
